MOLECULES OF EMOTION
By Candace B. Pert
$25.00
This book discusses how our thoughts and
emotions affect our health, and how the author feels they function together
as parts of an interconnected system. Pert, a neuroscientist whose career

have pondered for centuries.
Her research on how the chemicals inside
our bodies form an information network, linking mind and body, is provocative
and revolutionary. Pert empowers us to understand ourselves, our feelings,
and the connection between our minds and our bodies.
This book is full of insight and wisdom
and possesses that rare power to change the way we see the world and ourselves,
enabling us to understand the power of our minds and our feelings which
affect our health and well-being. |

God.
By Joan Borysenko - Book and Audio cassette
The Ways of the Mystic explores the
mysteries of life and delves into the "rainbow bridge" as Joan
describes the seven paths to God. She tells you how a mystical moment can
strike at any time anytime when you are fully present in the moment,
when looking at a beautiful moon, a sunset, walking in nature, or looking
into the eyes of a child. When you are fully present to the moment, you
will be filled with a sense of awe, a sense of beauty, and harmony, and
feel fully connected with it. You dont have to go to Nepal or go climb
a mountain to a have a mystical moment, but you must learn how to be fully
present to your everyday life. Mystical moments can be found in the mundane,
the ordinary, and in the extraordinary.
